What reading level is Cambridge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Scholars slept two and often more in a bed; and went, as did everyone else, naked to their beds. The advantages of a bedfellow in those bitter winters were obvious. It was equally obvious that those who shared a chamber, and so often a bed, should be well suited to one another; and parents expressed a not unnatural anxiety on this head. Letters exist in which the Tutor, who usually occu- pied a bed apart in a chamber for five persons, of whom four would be his pupils, is asked to choose careful...ly a bedfellow "gentle and virtuous" for the youthful freshman. The average age of entering was about fourteen during the earlier periods, but rose to sixteen during the latter centuries of which we have been writing. Most college offences were punishable by whipping, graver imprudences meeting with public chastisement executed by a menial in the Common Hall of the College. Fellows of M. A. Standing could CAMBRIDGE 31 be put in the college "stocks", and often were so handled. The pedagogic notion that intellectual ad- vancement is furthered by the application of physical pain was not confined to the grammar schools, and parents were often eager to place their sons under the care of a strong-armed college tutor.
